context menu

Select which options appear in the context menu (When you Right Click)

This suggestion appears to be one relatively sought after as there are multiple 'help threads' with people trying to do this, and no shortage of information for people to do it through unsupported and unofficial means.

The reason I suggest allowing users to chose what options that appear, is because I personally would only need one or two of the options available (currently in Windows 10) and will rarely ever need another one or two.

Even embedding these options in some kind of menu so they don't fill up the context menu with 7 (for me) additional items would be an improvement!

I'm not the first to ask for this, lets see if I can be the last?

I hope Dropbox is paying attention to this. I am tired of having to scroll past the unwanted items in my context menu just to get to my copy and paste commands. The least they could do is put them at the bottom of the menu instead of at the beginning or middle.

Thanks so much for the detailed suggestion, more control would be great.
